Debido al envejecimiento gradual de la población, muchos países están propiciando políticas de envejecimiento activo. Se trata de un estilo de vida saludable en el que las personas mayores buscan mejorar su calidad de vida. Un factor importante en el envejecimiento activo es la gestión del ocio mediante actividades placenteras que aumentan la percepción de bienestar personal. En este curso se revisan todos estos conceptos y los programas sociales más actuales de intervención con las personas mayores. Fue celebrado en el Aula de Villablino (León) del 9 al 13 de julio de 2012. El curso fue organizado por el Campus Noroeste de la UNED y se recibió por videoconferencia en el Centro Asociado de Ponferrada, A Coruña y Lugo, así como en las Aulas de Ferrol, Viveiro, Monforte y Foz.

«El pueblo mexicano» es una serie que Descarga Cultura.UNAM integra a su acervo sonoro, pero que originalmente constituyó una coproducción de TV UNAM y Radio UNAM para radio y televisión. Los contenidos, supervisados y escritos por investigadores universitarios, abarcan temáticas que van del origen de nuestros pueblos al análisis de las imágenes nacionales, así como los principales retos políticos, sociales y económicos que actualmente enfrenta nuestro país. A continuación reproducimos “Los pueblos originarios: historia y actualidad”, dividido en tres cápsulas, las cuales nos hablan sobre la transformación que las etnias indígenas han experimentado desde su condición de pueblos originarios hasta la época actual, pasando por el complejo periodo de la Colonia, en que fueron sometidas al arbitrio de la corona española.

Whilst international corporations are taken to court for complicity in human
rights abuses and the trade in child labour and sweatshops is still a scourge throughout the world, this event asks whether the international approach to corporate social responsibility of the last ten years has worked.
The approach of the last decade has focused primarily on voluntary measures taken by companies and enterprises, and finds expression in codes of conduct and non-binding agreements like the UN Global Compact. The CSR movement originally proposed some measures which should be legally binding on corporations, together with voluntary measures, but this was rejected for a voluntarist approach.
Ten years on we can ask: has this worked? Read More

Ever since the discovery in 1995 of an object with half the mass of Jupiter in a four-day orbit around the star 51 Pegasi, it has been clear that the dynamics of extrasolar planetary systems can be quite different from that of our solar system. More than 200 extrasolar planets have now been found, including at least 20 systems with multiple planets, some in resonant configurations. Their diversity must originate in the properties of the protoplanetary disc of dusty gas out of which they form, the dynamics of the formation of the planetary core, and the subsequent interaction of the planet with the surrounding disc, with other planets, and with the central star.
Over the past decade, there has been significant progress on the theoretical aspects of the planet formation process. Two viable models of planet formation have been explored, core accretion (growth of dust into planets through mutual collisions) and gravitational instability in the disc, and several modes of angular momentum exchange between planet and disc have been identified which may explain the proximity of the 51 Peg planet to its star. However, many of the stages of planet formation remain poorly understood. In part this is because of a lack of knowledge of the physical nature of protoplanetary discs, although this has increased dramatically in recent years owing both to observations of the gaseous and dusty components of the discs of pre-main-sequence stars and to computational modelling of their (magneto-) hydrodynamics. The outcome of planet formation is also becoming more tightly constrained, through the growing number of systems known to have either extrasolar planets or planetesimal belts analogous to the asteroid and Kuiper belts. The discovery of planetesimals and dwarf planets in the Kuiper belt beyond Neptune is also leading to a revision in our understanding of the formation and evolution of the outer solar system. The wide array of phenomena seen in all systems is opening up new areas of celestial mechanics.
